Netherrealm Studios has just announced the mobile version of Mortal Kombat X for iOS and Android devices. From the released trailer and press release the game seems similar to the mobile version of Injustice: Gods Among Us. Fans will also be delighted to know, that the mobile version will include Finishing Moves and will integrate with the Console/PC versions. Take a look at the press release and trailer for more information:

BURBANK, Calif. – March 2, 2015 – Warner Bros.

Once launched, players who own the forthcoming console or PC versions of the game will be able to unlock content in the mobile game and vice versa by signing up for a WB Play account and completing tasks and achievements within each version.

The trailer has a very nostalgic factor to it, so we thought it would be cool to make some screenshots of the footage with classic games:

Chapter 9 of the Mortal Kombat X comic book has just been released and it is amazing. This chapter sees the continuation of several story lines that were introduces in the first chapters of the series, including the kidnapping of Cassie Cage and Jacqui Briggs, Scorpion's search for Raiden and Sub-Zero's and Kano's battle from the very first chapter.

ComicVine has published an exclusive preview of digital chapter 9 several days ago. In this chapter, Johnny Cage will make his first appearance and will be referenced as Raiden's Champion. This is probably due to the events in Mortal Kombat 9 (2011) or may be due to the events during the Netherrealm war:

Sonya's back--and she wants her daughter! Meanwhile, Kano recounts his last encounter with Sub-Zero.

In addition to this a description about the upcoming chapter ten and a cover art is now available:
